Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1015 Night Beast
The scouts of the Han army held their breath and looked at the figure of the old cow with trepidation. They felt that in the night, their hearts were pounding, as if they were about to jump out of their chests.

I don't know how long it took before I saw the old cow crawling down the hill, got up and bent over and touched it back. When he came over, he heard the old cow lower his voice and say: "A dozen barbarian spies! Clearly, but the fishy smell is definitely not bad! It's just behind the dirt slope in front!"

The Han army sent out scouts, and the Hu people would naturally send out nearby scouts, but no one thought that they would encounter one in such a place!
I don't know who said in a low voice: "Then let's go back and report to Captain Zhang?"

The old cow glanced at the new recruit, but shook his head and said: "What are we? We are scouts, the eyeballs to find out the enemy's military situation, and the detection cloth to stop the opponent... Now there are more than a dozen barbarian scouts on the opposite side. We haven’t seen any traces of the barbarian brigade, so let’s go back? What kind of military report will we go back for?”

When Lao Niu spoke, the recruit he was talking about was a little embarrassed.

"I can't go back now, but I can't let the barbarian spies swagger in our direction and find out our reality..."

"Then what should we do? We can kill it!" The recruit just now waved his arm and said emphatically, perhaps to prove that he was not a momentary timid.

"There are sentinels from the opposite side on the mountain, and we still have these houses as a cover here. If we touch it directly, we may be spotted by these barbarian sentries... It's not easy to hit the cold arrow from the mountain... Ah..." The old cow scratched his head a little.

Several people squatted together, silent for a moment, Lao Niu finally made a decision: "We will lie in ambush here, these barbarian scouts are feeding the horses and resting, they always want to investigate our side... we can't let them So ostentatiously touching them all the time! What's more, as long as they come over, we will be in the dark, and at that time... if you are lucky, it will be a merit to get a few heads!"

After everyone heard this, they all agreed, so Lao Niu asked one of them to lead the horses to watch the back road, and then led the rest of the people to hide among the broken eaves and walls.Everyone is responsible for looking in one direction, taking everything around them into their eyes, no matter which direction the Huren scouts are heading, they will be spotted by them.

If the barbarians retreat, they will follow from afar, maybe just follow the vines. If the barbarian scouts do not have long eyes and really bump into them, then it is necessary to let these barbarians taste the swords, guns and arrows in their hands. the taste of.

A few people were lying in the shadows, but the recruit who had been taught a lesson by the old cow squatted next to the old cow on the half of the wall, silently observed the surrounding situation, after a while, the recruit couldn't help but whispered: "What? Long, you know a lot, when will I think of you like you..."

The old cow patted him on the shoulder lightly, and then said: "It's okay, just learn slowly...as long as..."

The old cow spoke in a very low voice, almost grunting in his throat, and then gave Gulu the last few words of the sentence without saying it.

As long as your life is tough...

On the battlefield, those who survive will naturally understand. If you still can't learn it, then you won't survive the next time, so naturally you don't have to worry about learning anything.

Just as the two were talking in a low voice, they suddenly heard the noise in front of them getting louder, and the sound of horseshoes falling apart, which seemed extraordinarily clear in the night.

The old cow's expression changed, and he quickly waved his hand to let the recruit return to his position, and then quietly poked out half of his head from the dark place of the broken wall to check.

The sound of horseshoes was not from the direction of the previous slope, but from the other side!

Under the twilight of the stars and the moon, a group of barbarian scouts can be seen flickering...

Then the whistle sounded from another direction, and another team of barbarian scouts appeared along with the sound!

At present, there are already three or forty people gathered here, which is several times more than the Han army scouts led by Lao Niu!
Damn!

This is actually the default gathering point for Huren scouts!
Immediately, several people didn't even dare to vent their breath, they just crouched in the shadow of the corner and deep in the long grass, motionless.

In the night, these barbarian scouts came out from nowhere, their low whistles echoed each other, and their war horses snorted and snorted, and they got together.

The settlement was originally an area with convenient road transportation, so it naturally became a natural point where the Hu people gathered.These barbarian scouts gathered in one place, talking to each other about something, no need to think about it, it must be exchanging relevant information about surrounding detection...

Lao Niu felt his heart pounding. Maybe ordinary people don't understand the meaning of the situation in front of him, but to Lao Niu, it means that these barbarian scouts are actually clearing the way for the army. The vanguard of the army will spread out here to detect the surrounding situation and control the way forward of the army!
The barbarian army is coming in this direction!
Maybe it's because they didn't encounter anything along the way, so these barbarian scouts were not particularly cautious. Instead, they carried out scouting as usual to find out the road conditions of the army, maintain the safety of the army's flanks, and control the nodes of the march. , they never considered that there would be opponents coming towards them as well...

It is normal for the Hu people to have such a reaction. The cavalry moves quickly when they want to come, and they come and go like the wind. I didn't expect that the Han army would also touch it!

It seems that this area has been investigated and explored by the Huren scouts before, so these Huren scouts did not intend to check these broken eaves and walls again, but scattered all over the road, facing the surrounding vigilance, only seeing human figures Coming and going, someone stuck a long wooden stick on the side of the road, and painted a section of white paint on the top of the stick, which was extremely obvious even in the dark.

This is the road sign for the Hu people's army to march.

The Han soldiers who were hiding all cast their eyes on the old cow, silently asking what to do now, the number of people on the opposite side is now several times that of their own, if they really hand over, they may not be able to get any benefits.

And it seemed that the Hu people's army was about to follow. The only option now seemed to be to retreat quickly and notify the rear troops that the Hu people were coming towards this line of defense!

The old cow was still lying on the broken wall, not saying a word.

After making a noise for a while, the barbarian scouts separated into a team and headed north, as if to return to the barbarian brigade, but the other [-] or so people still stayed where they were.

"Lao Niu... let's go now..." A veteran soldier came over, lying in the shadow of the corner, and said softly, "The barbarian army may be behind... If you don't go, I'm afraid you won't be able to go..."

The old cow still didn't move, and after a moment of silence he said: "No... how many people are there in the barbarian brigade, what equipment is there, and who is in command? We don't know these things. What's the use?"

"Then what do you want... it won't be that you want..."

....................................

The silent night suddenly became noisy.

Teams of barbarian cavalry appeared in the distance, and they all traveled long distances.Of course, for war horses, this big guy is also extremely short-sighted, so he can't walk fast at night, and can't run. As cavalry, since he can't gallop, half of it is to cherish the war horse, and half is to reduce the movement of marching , so most people got off their horses and led them along the road signs.

The Hu people in this brigade came from the Xiongnu tribe who came out from the Yinshan camp, and they came here to carry out Tuoba Guoluo's order to plunder the Han people.

It's not that these Huns cavalry were rampant and dared to march at night, but in order to complete the order as soon as possible, so as not to go deep alone for too long, the Han cavalry cut off the return route, so they chose to travel overnight.

Under the night, the white-headed wooden sticks on the side of the road are quite obvious, so it's not easy to go in the wrong direction.These wooden sticks are the credit of the Huns scouts, guiding the large group of troops forward, and once the large group of people passed by, these Hun scouts will put away a wooden stick again, and then surpass the troops, reach the front and continue to mark the direction of advancement.

This brigade of Xiongnu soldiers and horses totaled nearly a thousand people. I don’t know if it was for convenience or for other reasons. There is no one person or two horses, but some pack horses are brought behind the team.

The Xiongnu soldiers in the brigade just marched forward silently. Although the terrain in the Yinshan area is generally flat, there is no need to worry about rough roads or other problems, but when there are too many people, some problems will inevitably occur, such as some people going fast. Yes, some people are slow, and then they get stuck in a crowd. Although the Hu people also have military orders, they are just general regulations. To be exact...

Many Hu people who were exhausted from walking simply left the brigade, sat down on the side of the road, turned on the broken skin running fan, took out the water bag and drank water in small gulps.

Seeing that the team was a little slack, Lin Yinqin just gritted his teeth silently, the flesh on the side of his cheeks trembled twice, and finally said nothing.

These are all clansmen who have followed him all the way to fight for their lives. It is not bad to have these left, so how can we be more demanding?
Hurry up to the next gathering place of the Han people, and then plunder Huiyin Mountain is the right way.

Other people think that it is a good job to come out like this, and they all look at themselves with a hint of envy, but Lin Yinqin knows that the current Han people may not be what they used to be, and 50 people can be chased everywhere Run, the Han Chinese army with the tricolor flag is really not ordinary...

If my own army meets the Han army head-on, it may not be able to get much benefit.

What will happen to himself and his clansmen next, when Lin Yinqin thought of this question, his heart felt as if there was a sudden emptiness in his heart, and he felt uncomfortable.The dream of returning to the Meiji Royal Court to rule as the king with the help of the Xianbei forces has been shattered, but the next thing is like a series of nightmares, overwhelming the sky and covering the sky, and even the future direction seems to be completely invisible .

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion in front, and then someone screamed, and the shrill voice spread far in the night sky: "Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

I don't know who yelled: "It's Han people! Han people!"

Immediately, the entire marching Hun brigade was in chaos, those sitting on the ground jumped up, those off their horses got on their horses, those in the queue rushed out, and those in the rear wanted to move forward again, all of a sudden people shouted and neighed, and the chaos was overwhelming .

"Calm down! Calm down!" Lin Yinqin yelled loudly, "Each leader brings his own soldiers! Don't rush around! Where is the leader of the front team? Report the situation!"

"It's the Han people! It's the Han people's scouts!"

From top to bottom, the Xiongnu brigade did not expect that they would encounter Han soldiers at this point in time!And even dared to launch an attack in front of the brigade!

There was the sound of horseshoes splashing, and an orderly ran to Lin Yinqin and reported: "Our scouts ahead have encountered Han Chinese scouts! We are fighting!"

Before Lin Yinqin could issue any orders, another cavalry came running over and said, "Two Han Chinese scouts died, one of our scouts died, one was injured, and... one more person was taken away." ..."

"What?!" Lin Yinqin yelled, "Let the leader of the team in front lead people to chase after him immediately, and I must chase them back! Kill the Han Chinese scouts!"

Chuanqi let out a huh, and then said: "Report to the commander... I have already chased him out..."

As soon as the words fell, I heard another loud commotion in front of me!
"What's the matter!" Lin Yinqin couldn't hold back his anger, and roared, "Come on! Follow me!"

But when Lin Yinqin arrived at the front of the queue with his personal guards, he saw the corpse of the little headman who was originally leading the queue...

The war horse screamed at the side, arching its big head against the motionless corpse on the ground.

The head of the Hun head fell to one side, his eyes were wide open, as if he was still wondering how he died, but the neck on his body was like a sharp knife, and blood gushed out from it.

"what happened!?"

A surviving Hun sat next to the corpse with a panicked expression on his face. Hearing Lin Yinqin's roar, the focus of his eyes slowly converged. He raised his hand and pointed, trembling. He said: "...the Han people, the Han people escaped from here...we chased after the leader...but...here..."

The Hun trembled all over, obviously recalling some bad pictures, "...these Han people can bewitch...know how to bewitch...the headman chases here, this head, head...just drop it by yourself down..."

"Did you fall?" Lin Yinqin's eyes widened in disbelief, "It's impossible!"

Whose head will automatically fall down?
Lin Yinqin knew that his people would not lie to him, so it must be caused by something hidden in the broken eaves and walls in front of him.

But what exactly caused it, Lin Yinqin didn't know.

Lin Yinqin looked up at this piece of black and broken eaves and broken walls. For some reason, he suddenly had a feeling, like a ferocious beast in the dark night, opening its mouth wide, waiting for him to come forward and deliver it to his mouth...
